This glamorous drag gown window installation along Santa Monica Boulevard was created by ChadMichael Morrisette (of Oh Mannequin) and Mito Aviles, and you can often see their work in the skies of West Hollywood in these head-turning rooftop mannequin displays along Fountain Avenue.

Now start your engines and get ready for the latest season of RuPaul's Drag Race (and keep everything crossed, and tucked, for an Emmy win or two this September).

UPDATED: Very cleverly they seem to rotate the costumes on display in these windows to keep the installation fresh and show off the variety of RuPaul's outfits. Here's three more Zaldy-designed looks snapped on August 29, 2016, enjoy all the eleganza.
